Upgrading question

[LDDG]

I am currently running IPS 4.1.11.1 and before I upgrade to IPS 4.1.12, I had a queastion that has been bugging me...

Once I finish the upgrade routine via the AdminCP, what happens with the template/CSS files that I have customized? My guess is that since they are customized, they will be left untouched, which means that they would technically NOT be upgraded.

Do I need to go through ALL the template/CSS files and manually REVERT them back to their original states, BEFORE I start the upgrade routine and then once upgraded, go back and re-enter all the customizations?

Is this the right way of upgrading?

That is the correct way

The alternative is to find the 'differences' and see if you have made any changes to the templates that it shows are changed ... if you haven't made any changes to those templates then template has been upgraded.

Not sure why you mention the css files as you should be using custom.css to add your changes ... then you do not have to worry about css files as much (only if IPS remove/change a css that you are using in your custom.css file)
